Log:
[ImplicitNullChecks] Be smarter in picking the memory op.

Summary:
Before this change ImplicitNullChecks would only pick loads of the form:

```
   test Reg, Reg
   jz elsewhere
 fallthrough:
   movl 32(Reg), Reg2
```

but not (say)

```
   test Reg, Reg
   jz elsewhere
 fallthrough:
   inc Reg3
   movl 32(Reg), Reg2
```

This change teaches ImplicitNullChecks to look through "unrelated"
instructions like `inc Reg3` when searching for a load instruction
to convert to a trapping load.
